The dish’s origin is not clear, but many believe credit is due to the South Asian community in Great Britain, and some say it may have derived from butter chicken. But whatever the origin, it’s a popular choice for hotels, pubs, and restaurants, be it for guest or staff meals.
Chicken Tikka Masala is a dish renowned for its flavour and aroma, typically made with chicken breast in a creamy spiced tomato curry. The chicken might be grilled or roasted before it is slowly cooked in an aromatic tomato-based sauce.
Substantial and delicious, the classic dish of Chicken Tikka Masala has become a go-to for many restaurants, either for the kitchen team, or for your dining-in guests.

About Mustard Foods
The Mustard Group was founded in 1974. In the nineties Mustard Catering, led by Glynn Woodin, revolutionised London’s high-end catering sector and took Mustard to the top, catering at venues across London, including The Royal Academy, The Wallace Collection and the V&A.
In the mid-2000s, the casual dining sector began to change. Growing restaurant groups needed strategic food partners with development, advisory and production facilities to support their growth and by 2009, with the establishment of Mustard Foods, Mustard had started supplying a select group of London hotels, pubs and restaurants.
The essence of what made Mustard great in the eighties and nineties remains core to Mustard Foods today: quality, consistency, and integrity.
